6 y bg Muthathir – Reaction ( Bob, Cliff, Martin, Neil, Peej, Steve, Tony)
Arguably the most exciting national hunt horse around currently he boasts an unbeaten record of 8 out of 8. He made his debut at Ballinaboola in February last year, winning a 2m 4f maiden point by 10l from Nearly Perfect. He made his rules debut at Fairyhouse last December, winning a 2m bumper by 4l from Port Stanley, then followed up 2 weeks later in a 2m listed bumper, beating Midnight Run 4 ¾ l. He then won at Leopardstown in February, in a 2m grade 2 bumper, beating Meticulous 1 ¼ l and finished the season taking the 2m grade 1 Champion bumper at the Cheltenham Festival, beating Blue Sari ¾ l.
He reappeared at Down Royal last November, winning a 2m maiden hurdle by 6 ½ l from Front View, then in December at Fairyhouse, won the Grade 1 Royal Bond novice hurdle by 1 ½ l from Abacadabras. He then went to Naas in January, winning a 2m4f Grade 1 hurdle, beating Elixir D’ainay by 3 ½ l, then finished at Cheltenham in March, winning the 2m 5f Grade 1 Ballymore novice hurdle by 4 ¼ l from Easywork.
A final decision wheteher he stays over hurdles or goes chasing ahs yet to be made, but given he was in the 2m 5f novice hurdle last season, I suspect he will go novice chasing, and he remains a really top class performer.
